I witnessed the true spirit of community as Seattle Police Department, Accenture, Seattle Public Schools, and Operation Warm joined forces to bring warmth and joy to our local students. ???? What started as a simple coat drive turned into something magical. Watching shy faces transform into beaming smiles as children found their perfect coat – in just the right color they wanted – was absolutely priceless. The pride in their eyes when they zipped up their new winter coat for the first time... those are moments I'll never forget, and they were right I cant wait until the next one! These partnerships between law enforcement, corporate allies, schools, and non-profits show what's possible when we come together for our community's children. It's more than just providing warmth; it's about showing our kids they matter and their community cares. Grateful to be part of this incredible initiative with Seattle Police Department, Accenture @Seattle Public Schools Operation Warm. Here's to keeping our little ones warm this winter! ?? #CommunityOutreach #SeattleCommunity #GivingBack #CorporateSocialResponsibility #OperationWarm #SeattleKids
